Fights for press freedom and democracy continue. Chiefly a) exile Russian journalists, eg The Moscow Times , Novaya Gazeta Europe, Meduza in English, b) Ukrainian freedom fighters. Two years ago, I didnt think I'd put journalists and soldiers in the same praise... #Media4Europe Europe MédiaLab

Merci Tremeur Denigot et Auger Veronique pour cette bonne discussion. Véronique, Tabiasco Christian de @MouvementEuropeen56 m'a dit lors de ma conférence 'Europe & Ukraine' à Locmariaquer que tu animeras un débat entre Spitzenkandidaten. En Bretagne: Bravo!

From the Digital Services Act to the Media Freedom Act, EU lawmakers have taken important steps that will, directly or indirectly, help safeguard the media sector. But more must be done, argue Paolo Cesarini, Christophe Leclercq, and Maria João Rodrigues. bit.ly/4e69dBd

Very smart #cardinals! As dictatorship started crumbling in Eastern Europe, they chose #PopeJohnPaul2. As authoritarian #Trump threatens democracy in America, as the Bible is misused, they chose #PopeLeoXIV, an American close to hispanics. God bless America! Welcome Pope Leo XIV !
